Your totally right about that SkiDaBird. Even though Yan's high speed quads didn't work as hoped, they were still some of the most beautiful lifts ever made. I'm a bit sad that I will never get to ride an unmodified Yan HSQ.

Wow, great find! A bunch of other interesting lift shots in there too. I see the Park City gondola, original Crescent Yan quad, pre-shortening Ski Team, Three Kings, and then at Deer Valley you can see the Wasatch, Homestake, and Clipper Yan triples. Also a good Delta 727 at SLC airport.

The Remontees-Mecaniques photo-article of the Spain Yan detachable quad installation was update a couple a months ago, so worth checking out again.https://www.remontee...-reac-1057.html
It broke down this season and never reopened. It will be replaced this summer.Edit: sorry, I already posted this in a different topic
